Real-time disease monitoring predicts early relapse and refines conventional imaging in patients with DLBCL
Monitoring lymphoma treatment has long relied on PET-CT scans, but these are imperfect. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) offers a minimally invasive, highly specific way to track disease in real time. In our study, we explored how ctDNA can reshape response assessment in DLBCL.
Beyond Visualization: Rediscovering Bhāvanā — The Science of Becoming
What if meditation isn’t about calming the mind, but about becoming something more? Beyond Visualization: Reframing Bhāvanā as a Multisensory, Lived Experience explores how embodied inner cultivation can reshape our scientific understanding of mindfulness and transformation.
Earthquake stress-drop values delineate spatial variations in maximum shear stress in the Japanese forearc lithosphere
Our study in Communications Earth & Environment uses an interdisciplinary approach to link earthquake stress drop, depth, and crustal strength (i.e. stress to failure). We find that stress drop scales with modeled maximum shear stress, revealing a physical basis for its correlation with depth.
